    A small step for mankind, a massive leap for decentralised training... for agency. In the space of 9 months, @tplr_ai went from 1.2B -> 72B. It's never been easy, and has broken everyone on the team multiple times. But I speak for all of us when I say it is the most rewarding

    We just completed the largest decentralised LLM pre-training run in history: Covenant-72B. Permissionless, on Bittensor subnet 3. 72B parameters. ~1.1T tokens. Commodity internet. No centralized cluster. No whitelist. Anyone with GPUs could join or leave freely. 1/n

    Bittensor is the closest thing we have to Satoshi's Vision. Fight me

    I’ve been accumulating TAO since 650. I regret nothing

    $TAO is what happens when you stop asking "what if AI gets smarter" and start asking "what if we could own a piece of that intelligence." While everyone's worried about being replaced by AI, Bittensor holders are getting paid by it. Decentralized AI isn't just inevitable. It's

    The world's first permissionless, incentivised model was trained on @tplr_ai , served on Chutes ( @rayon_labs ). This is blowing my mind in so many different ways. We can , instruction fine tune on gradients, and thats it! The whole AI Lifecycle. Powered by @opentensor

    Amazing work from @DistStateAndMe and team at @tplr_ai You can give it a spin on chutes (just the completions endpoint, no chat template since it's a base/pretrained model) chutes.ai/app/chute/2163…

    I dont think its arrogance when we say you can build any AI start up on @opentensor . Our Incentive System , Yuma Rao is expressive enough to codify almost any system. Bittensor will power the world's super cluster. Yuma Rao subsumes all . #TAO

    12 hours ago @EMostaque asked me for crypto incentives which exchanged TAO for H100s. 4pm today. Done.
